2009 Selle Italia SLR Kit Carbonio Saddle
The SLR Kit Carbonio is the twin to the SLR in many vital respects: It's built on the same 30% carbon composite shell for lightness; it has the same EVA padding for comfort; and it has the same weather-resistant full-leather cover for longevity.

Hands down, the SLR is the saddle of choice for the riders on those teams. Why? It's perhaps the ultimate meeting ground of lightness and comfort. At 135g, ...read more
